WWE legend and Hollywood star John Cena surprised fans after sharing a photo of Korean actor Kim Moo Yul on social media.
Cena uploaded a photo of Kim Moo Yul to his official account on June 10th without any caption. While Cena is known for posting random images, memes and public figures without context, fans were quick to notice that this was the first time he had shared a photo of a Korean actor.
The post quickly sparked discussion online, with many fans taking it as a playful reference to the long-running joke that Kim Moo Yul looks a lot like Cena. The comparison has been popular in online communities for years, and many joked that Cena had finally recognized his Korean look-alike.
The timing is especially notable as Kim Moo Yul is currently enjoying one of the biggest successes of his career. The actor recently returned to the spotlight with Netflix’s Teach You a Lesson, which premiered on June 5th.
Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, the series follows members of the Teacher Rights Protection Bureau as they take on school violence and fight for justice on behalf of victims. The drama quickly gained attention after its release and has performed strongly on Netflix’s charts.
Kim Moo Yul stars as Na Hwa Jin, a leading supervisor at the agency. His performance has earned praise from viewers for balancing emotional depth with intense action scenes. Known for action roles in films such as The Roundup: Punishment, the actor once again showcases the physical presence and screen charisma that have made him one of Korea’s most reliable leading men.
While Cena did not explain the post, fans on both sides of the globe appear to agree on one thing: the resemblance is hard to ignore.
